Biffa_SAF Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 (edited) K I really hate asking and bugging people but to get my latest mission/mod working I've had to learn how to be a character and weapons modder with 3dsm erm guess what? I'm on the vehicles now! I've looked everywhere but cannot find anything about Vehicle Helpers, I'm sure it must have been covered but cannot find. I've got some basic unarmed and non-accessible, wheeled vehicles and I'm sure they need helpers. I don't even mind if they can't move, I'm not difficult. I need some info (or a downloadable example) on what elements you need to actually create in 3dsm i.e. Wheels animation (no idea), Helpers (I think so). I've got the vehicles done as a solid at the moment with nothing else added. I've checked out Eloso's cool site but he doesn't mention where they should go in 3dsm and piggyson only mentions which way round the models should face in his F&Q section. Also Eloso's tut doesn't cover basic wheeled vehicles, I'm sure this is because they're simple but so am I! I apologise now if I'm being thick but currently my crooks BMW 325i is just crashing the mission, I've scaled it using the scale guy, igored it perfectly as a humvee but no joy, what am I missing?

cobaka Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 You definitely need helper points. Don't need to animate the wheels - that's built into the game engine for wheeled vehicles. Try looking at the stinger model at Piggyson's site. Oh, and there is a vehicle building PDF on the CD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
